Presentation transcript:

 A world-wide approach to defining and classifying hazards, and communicating information on labels and safety data sheets.

 Covers all hazardous chemical substances, dilute solutions, and mixtures.  Requires chemical manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors to standardize hazardous classification criteria, labels, and safety data sheets.  Hazard Communication  Labels  Safety Data Sheets

Product identifier Supplier identifier Chemical identity Hazard pictograms Signal words Hazard statements Precautionary information

 Pictograms will have a black symbol on a white background with a red diamond frame. A black frame may be used for shipments within one country.

GHS Pictograms !

“Danger” or “Warning”  Used to emphasize hazard and discriminate between levels of hazard.

 A single harmonized hazard statement for each level of hazard within each hazard class  Example: Flammable liquids  Category 1: Extremely flammable liquid and vapour  Category 2: Highly flammable liquid and vapour  Category 3: Flammable liquid and vapour  Category 4: Combustible liquid

 Label should include precautionary information describing recommended measures to minimize or prevent adverse effects from chemical exposure.

 The Safety Data Sheet should provide comprehensive information about a chemical substance or mixture.  Employers and employees use the Safety Data Sheet as a source of information about hazards and to obtain advice on safety precautions.

 Replace current Material Safety Data Sheets by requesting Safety Data Sheets from all suppliers

1.Identification 2.Hazard(s) identification 3.Composition/information on ingredients 4.First-aid measures 5.Fire-fighting measures 6.Accidental release measures 7.Handling and storage 8.Exposure control/personal protection

9.Physical and chemical properties 10.Stability and reactivity 11.Toxicological information 12.Ecological information 13.Disposal considerations 14.Transport information 15.Regulatory information 16.Other information
